The Alexander the Great Project!

[TheLastOne36]

I need some ideas on someone. Preferably if an ancient to dark age civ that I listed. (one that i omitted is Baktria, which already uses an Alexander leader). I don't even know what I would like to hear, something. It would be a pitty to get rid of a good leaderhead made by Fireaxis. I'll take a look around, maybe i'll come up with something.

I said, give him a new body, that could be a renaissance leader body, or a modern age suit of some sort. That's why I said post-dark age, as in all the ages after than, including today.

And what exactly do you mean by "post dark-age" leader? I thought that we called that the renaissance.

Maybe he means the High Middle Ages, since the dark ages didnt last all the way to the renaisance.

I don't really understand what you're looking for, but what's wrong with the Capo's suggestion of using the old Alex as Pyrrhus or Antiochus?

 

[TheLastOne36]

I have 3 leaders for Greece. Alexander, Pericles, and George I.

I dont want any civ to have 4 leaderheads, but I don`t want to discard Fireaxis alexander either.

 

[Vrenir]

Antiochus could be for Babylon if you like, assuming a political and not genetic affiliation.

Hey, if there's Cleopatra for Egypt...

 

[MadmanOfALeader]

I think, LastOne, that Venizelos would be a better third leader than George I.

If there is a Venizelos leaderhead, than I would add it.

I am also looking for a Mameluk leader to put in my Egypt Civ instead of Kleopetra...

 

[TheLastOne36]

Problem is, I'm lacking in the History of the Mameluks. I don't know who would be good.

 

[The Capo]

I actually think Ekmek's El Cid could pass as a Mameluk leader, especially a militaristic one. With a changed background of course.

 

[The_J]

Looks very nice. I thought of Sindbad when looking at him.

 

[Vrenir]

That actually looks really really cool. The mustache and Alex head with the turban really go together well. I can't wait to see the rest.

 

[DarkReborn]

I really like this, the original Alexander model is well... uninspiring to conquest

 

[The Capo]

Wow, that looks great!

I can't wait to use that in my mod when it is finished.

 

[TheLastOne36]

VeBear move it to your thread, I really want to see this be developed!

Capo, are you going to include an individual Mameluk civ or put it togather with Egypt getting rid of Kleo?

 

[The Capo]

Probably neither. I'll either use it for a civ in the mod or for a module, but I already have a list of Egyptian leaders (Amenhotep III, Ptolemy Soter, Ramesses II, and Hatshepsut) and I limit it to four per civ in my mod. So no Mamelukes or Arab leaders for Egypt.

And Cleopatra was never part of my mod, not even the first edition.

Hi, first off I really love this Alexander LH. Congrats to the team. I downloaded it a couple of months ago and had no problems since then. the idea to include extra art is very clever.

Question, How do we the uninitiated in LH manipulation change the art succesfully assuming I can read tags and labels within the art files and can help myself with XML editing and follow non-graphic instructions. What files within the art files can be changed? How do I change backgrounds and what BK do I use with the new background?

This is an out of subject question but most probabaly to the most expert people whose excellent work the rest of us all, shamelessly use to mod our games. Is there a bovine type single headed, single standing unit (not a resource) anywhere on the forums? i.e. not attached to a cart etc. I've been looking for a month and know about the bears, lionesses et all including the boar. But had no luck for a bovine/cow type.

Thanks and waiting to see your new creations.

PS. A couple of other famous ancient Greek leaders were Xenophon famous even in his lifetime for the succesful retreat of the 10 000 after Cyrus death and the only Athenian known to have commanded Spartans succesfully; Themistocles (rummoured to have been a Red haired) who beat Xerxes and broke his fleet after they took out Leonidas and his 300; Miltiades who beat Darius at the lake of Marathon and the idea for the start of this race run not with a fresh start, but by someone after a full days battle! No wonder he died. Just some ideas and background.

So I think I can post this now.

Looks like the Civ5 Alex had some inspiration

Congrats to everyone who worked on him, it must make you all proud
